Seafolly Surf

Frequently Asked Questions

• What is Seafolly's heritage and what makes the brand iconic?

  Seafolly was founded in Australia in 1975 and helped popularize Lycra in swimwear during the 1980s, as well as the industry shift toward selling bikinis as separates. The brand is known for beach-focused design, premium construction and a long history of trend-driven swim innovation.
• What materials does Seafolly use and how does the brand address sustainability?

  Many Seafolly styles use a recycled nylon and elastane blend (commonly around 80% recycled nylon/20% elastane) to deliver quick-dry performance and stretch. The label has incorporated recycled fabrics across core collections to reduce virgin material use while maintaining durability and colorfastness.
• How does Seafolly approach fit and support across its swimwear lines?

  Seafolly’s “Fit is a feeling” philosophy drives careful construction, offering sizes typically from AUS 6 to AUS 18 (CAN 4 to CAN 16) and supportive cup options in select styles. Support features include internal shelf bras, removable cups, underwire and gripper tape to help customize fit and stability in the water.
• What features do Seafolly surf suits and sun vests include for water sports and sun protection?

  Seafolly surf suits and sun vests often include long sleeves for increased sun coverage, zip-front closures for easy on/off, fuller-coverage silhouettes and quick-dry fabric blends for comfort after activity. These design choices prioritize motion, UV protection and durability for paddling, surfing and general water play.
• Can I mix and match Seafolly pieces, and how should I choose sizes?

  Seafolly pioneered selling bikinis as separates, so most collections are designed to mix-and-match tops and bottoms by color and size to dial in fit. Choose top and bottom sizes independently using the brand’s size chart and consider supportive features (underwire, removable cups) when selecting for bust shape and activity level.
